CAROUSEL

CAROUSEL
carousel
this familiar tune
sounds so weird
merry go round?
no!
this thing off by itself
carousel
every full time round
this odd face
carousel
choo choo whistles
frightening dissonance
carousel
off by itself
timeless riders
carousel
out of time
distant coaster rumbles
carousel
different time
different place

Daver, I kept thinking of "Stop the World, I Want to Get Off." Life can be such a scary ride sometimes, and I like the mystery of how this carousell started by itself. Probably it was in your memory. Very nicely done, my friend. (I can hear that distant thunder rumbling.) Well done! Love, Carolyn
